Same thing: automated calls from this company saying that they were trying to reach someone (not me) with the same last name as me for a "confidential message" and that if I was not that person to hang up. So I did. So they called back. This time I listened to the confidential message.
When I called back, one of the options was to report an incorrect phone call. So I pressed that option and was placed on hold. The woman at the answering service said she'd remove my number, but that it would take 48 hours. Since then, I'm still receiving the phone calls.
How is this not harrasment? How is this not against the law?
Calls nearly every day for over a month, sometimes more than once a day. Recordings like "this is a confidential message, if you are not ---- ---- please hang up now." So I do, but they just call right back. I even get repeat hang-up calls. I have never heard of the person they are asking for!
I am going to try to call them tomorrow and have my number removed but I doubt it will work. I have been getting other collection calls which seem to be from the same "NOVI (248)" area listed in another post as an address for Wolpoff & Abromson, L.L.P.
this number has repeatedly called ,and leaves a recorded message for someone that we do not know.says to call a certain number to keep from getting the calls,but all you get is more recorded messages!So we just let the answering machine get it..

This is Rediculous. I pick up the phone, and there is no one on the other end.... HOW DO I GET THIS COMPUTER TO STOP CALLING ME ??!!!??
These people have been calling for 6 months or more. I answered once months ago and they are looking for someone with a similar name. They said they wouldn"t stop calling unless I could confirm I wasn't the person they are looking for. The only way they"ll do that is if I supply them with "personal data". Like I'm going to give them that.....We're on the do not call list and I've reported them but apparently that does no good since they are still calling.
